Chapter 73 Are you stupid?


    Why not avoid it?


    Pursing her lips, Ang didn''t reply. If she said ''yes'', Auntie Adeline would give her a even harder time.


    If she said ''no'', Adeline would make her brother take full responsibility.


    There was no win-win answer, so she kept silent.


    "Jessica is a kind-hearted girl. She was almost killed by you but didn''t sue you and just let you stay in


    prison for two years. How could you keep trying to hurt her again and again!"


    Adeline walked over to Ang’s bed, and poked her forehead hard with her well-manicured finger, "Do


    you have any conscience?"


    Ang''s forehead got red by her poke, but she didn''t fight back.


    Danis furrowed his brow and took a step forward subconsciously, but soon he retreated and chose to


    ignore the scene.


    "Is this your dignity, Auntie Adeline?"


    At that very moment, James, who had finished his phone call, pushed the door open and walked in.


    Seeing James, Adeline was a bit surprised. Then her gaze moved from James to Denise, with a hidden


    rage in her voice, "Denise, do you came over with James after dinner?"


    "James, what are you doing here at this time."


    Denise pretended to be astonished as well.


    And James stayed calm, "I came over after finishing my work."


    He nced at Ang''s red forehead,"Are you an idiot?


    Why not avoid it."


    "I am not stupid."


    It just can’t be avoided.


    No matter how severe Jessica had hurt her, at least she imed that it was an ident, but her brother


    was tantly sshing hot tea on her. She was ‘in the wrong’.


    James grunted sarcastically and looked elsewhere.


    "Let them say. Just drink your soup. It is getting cold."


    Denise served another bowl of chicken soup and handed it to Ang.


    Ang said thank you, and then sipped the soup.


    The ck bone chicken soup was very fresh and fragrant, but she had no taste for it.


    She would have preferred that it was her parents, not auntie Denise, who hade to visit and take


    care of her, protecting her from the Smiths.


    "Are you on Ang’s side, just like your mom?"


    Adeline''s voice got a little sharp in a high pitch, "Did you forget that one of Jessica’s leg was hurt by her


    because of you? "


    James sat down on the bed beside Ang, and avoided her questioning in a teasing tone, "Even a


    teenage girl won’t say such childish words."


    "Does Mr. James know how to respect the elders?"


    Danis''s amber eyes were tinged with a dark hue.


    James pursed his lips, "Does auntie Adeline know how to love the juniors?"


    The ward was spacious, but the skirmish between them made Ang out of breath. It was so


    depressing in the room.


    "Well, we get patients here. What are you guys doing?"


    Denise sighed and nced at Danis and Adeline, whose hands were empty, "I guess Adeline and


    Danis were not supposed to visit Ang, were you?"


    Without waiting for them to answer, she continued.


    "I don''t think so, you would at least bring a gift if it is a visit."


    "We just came over to get justice for Jessica."


    Danis said before his mother.


    "Greyson hurt Jessica for no reason. My mother and I want to know if it was his own idea or he was


    egged on by someone."


    When he said ''someone'', he nced at Ang.


    "Did Greyson really hurt Jessica for no reason?


    As far as I am concerned, Ang’s injury is more severe than Jessica’s."


    Denise eximed, "Ang''s scalded leg hurts me just by a look."


    Hearing this, a surge of rage rose in Adeline’s chest. She chided


    "You think we are lying, Denise?"


    "Not at all. I just asked out of curiosity. Don''t get me wrong again."


    Denise smirked, "I heard that Jessica had spilled hot water on Ang by mistake, a pot of hot water,


    what a mistake!"


    Before Denise could finish her words, Danis''s phone rang. He picked it up, said several ‘yes’ with a


    frown, then turned to spoke to Adeline.


    "Jessica said she wouldn’t me Greyson and Ang. Besides, Ang’s injury is more severe. She


    wanted us to apologize to Ang, and then go home."


    Denise smirked. What a hypocritical girl!


    "Even someone shit on her head, she would speak for him!"


    Adeline was exasperated.She turned to point at James and said.


    "James, I just wanna ask you one question. Why did you withdraw thewsuit when you knew what


    Greyson and Ang had done to Jessica?"


    Copyright N?v/el/Dra/ma.Org.


    Had thewsuit been withdrawn?


    Ang sighed in relief. She had already been in jail for once. If her brother also went to jail, even only


    for several days, the reputation of their family would be totally ruined.


    James smiled, "Though Greyson smashed my club, the Chante Group gave me a piece ofnd in G


    City aspensation. Greyson scalded the back of Jessica''s hand, but one of Ang’s leg was hurt by


    her, no matter she did it on purpose or not. They are even, why can''t I withdraw thewsuit?"


    Adeline was dumbfounded for a moment. James’s theory was watertight.


    "It is said that Mr. Danis is an impartial gentlemen. I’d like to hear your opinion on this matter?"


    James looked at Danis.


    ncing at the bandage on Ang''s leg, Danis frowned slightly, and said to Adeline.


    "Mom, let''s go home."


    "Even you are speaking for Ang?!"


    Adeline’s face turned green because of rage. Even her delicate make-up couldn’t cover her vicioua


    look.


    "It was not all Greyson and Ang’s fault. After all, it was Jessica who scalded Ang''s leg at first,


    then Greyson spilled water on her.


    Pointing at Danis’s nose, Adeline was so angry that she was dumb for a while. She glowered at


    Ang, then walked out furiously, mming the door of the ward.


    "Goodbye."


    Danis looked at Ang''s pale face as if he had something to say. But he opened the door and left.


    Denise stared at the closed door and said, "Adeline is so lucky for having such excellent children."


    "Probably all her blessings were used up on that."


    James said sarcastically.


    Denise med him with a smile.


    "Don''t judge your elders. Be a polite man."


    James pursed his lips.


    “You can''t have a good rest with us here.


    It''s toote today. We’lle back to see you on another day. Now we have to leave."


    Denise got up and said.


    Ang agreed. She attempted to get up to see them off, but Denise held her down, "You''re having a


    drip. Don’t move your injured leg. Just save your courtesy."


    Sheforted Ang again, then left with James.


    The moonlight was dim. Trees cast a whirling shadow on James''s face through the car window, which


    was both angr and handsome.


    "I''ll thank you on behalf of Ang."


    Denise, who sat beside him with a smile, seemed to be in a good mood..


    "I think you got me wrong."


    The Bentley started up and the shadows of the trees yed like a film on James''s face, obscuring the


    emotion in his eyes, "I didn’t withdraw for Ang."


    Denise raised his eyebrows slightly, "Yes?"


    "The loss of the Dream Club is nothingpared with the piece ofnd in the new nning area of G


    city. There''s no way I''m going to give up such a big piece of cake for Jessica."


    James said.
